Back Country Land Trust

Back Country Land Trust is a non-profit organization based in Alpine, California, with a small team of three employees. Since its founding, the organization has focused on land conservation and environmental stewardship. Back Country Land Trust is dedicated to protecting and preserving natural habitats. Their primary efforts involve acquiring land, particularly Wright's Field, and incorporating it into the County's Multiple Species Conservation Program (MSCP) Plan. They also develop educational programs to engage the community in land management practices and raise awareness about environmental conservation. The organization has a proven track record of success in securing public funding for land acquisition. They have been awarded the top three spots on the State of California's Resource Agency Listing for EEMP grants (Environmental Enhancement and Mitigation Program funding). Furthermore, they have successfully matched these grants with funding from the County of San Diego.
